SOME FUNNY THINGS ABOUT GETTING OLD
The New Yorker
|August 25, 2025
Children run alongside and taunt you, because you're old, but you don't care, because your hearing is shot!
Your hair falls out, but you can't tell, because your eyesight is shot. You brush your bald head with a stiff bristle brush, but you can't feel it, because the nerves in your scalp are all shot!
A rattlesnake bites you on the leg, but the poison doesn't go to your heart, because your veins are all shot!
You have a dream that your eyesight is perfect and your hearing is perfect, but when you wake up you can't remember it, because your memory is shot!
